Lot 4091 - USN Skivvy Shirt - Yellow
Warehouse & Co. - Lot 4091 - USN Skivvy Shirt - Yellow
We've had quite a run with Warehouse Tees in the last 18 months, so when we saw these skivvy shirts come through...we were all over it. The little rope accent you'll see throughout the pictures definitely sealed the deal. These shirts are part of the "Duck Digger" series and they're wonderfully produced. The underwear used by the US Navy was called "squib" as slang. Early squibs were white but eventually changed to colors for the navy as to not be confused with the Marines and Army.
The little feature you'll notice on both sides of the hem is for the "Laundry Hall." When laundry is dried on deck, they would tie the ropes to the lines in order to prevent it from being blown off deck. This hole is of course reinforced like a button to keep its shape. It's such a wonderful little piece of history, even if you don't use the rope for daily wear or for hanging the shirts. This Navy's classic "Skib" T-shirt has been reproduced with details that are faithful to the original. This is a US NAVY original body woven using uneven yarn that is slightly thinner than the standard warehouse No. 12 and thicker than the Secohan T-shirt.
To describe this cotton has been hard we find, not only for us but industry-wide. Some people call it slub. We were calling it texture at first, but ultimately our conversations with Warehouse kept bringing up one word - Shadow. When you put these shirts in the proper light, it makes perfect sense. The highs and lows in color can only truly be described as horizontal shadows in the cotton.

| Chest (pit to pit) | 20.47 | 21.25 |

| Shoulder (back seams) | 18.89 | 19.65 | 20.47 |
| Length (CB to hem) | 26.77 | 27.55 | 28.34 |
| Arm (shoulder to seam) | 7.08 | 7.48 | 7.87 |
A variance of +/-.5" is within tolerance.
Fit Notes: Shop owner Tommy is wearing a 38 in the pictures. This normally would not be the case with Warehouse. We never recommend sticking with your true size or sizing down, but these shirts fit differently. They are for sure true to size. Tommy can wear a size 40 or 38 in these and be perfectly comfortable. We're also expecting less shrink in this shirt than the standard lot. We recommend paying close attention to those size charts if you want a nice fit (you can see the 38 has a 41" chest). If you don't mind a little more room, size up. Tommy is 5'10," 165lbs with a 40" chest.
- Length - 1-1.5"

We recommend a cold water wash and dry flat. Zach has washed this shirt and saw much less shrinkage than the Lot 4601. If you have any woes about sizing or the wash process in general, definitely size up to the next size.
*ROPES ARE NOT ATTACHED. THEY ARE PURPOSEFUL BUT COMPLETELY DETACHED. IF YOU'RE NOT BUYING THIS SHIRT BECAUSE OF THE STRINGS, PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION. THESE ARE SOME OF THE BEST TEES WAREHOUSE MAKES*
Apparel
We were over the moon to get our hands on this extremely limited run of Greencast Slub Selvedge. If you recognize this beautiful fabric, kudos because it's been nearly a decade since its last release as part of the Made in Japan series. It has been their most requested denim since, because everyone loves a greencast. This hue is accomplished by adding a bit of green dye to the batch either just at the beginning or just at the end of the process. It creates a bit of a lighter, less indigo-dense fabric that is easy to see upfront. The real green comes out as the pair fades revealing a gradient of color. Probably the other reason these were so popular is that slubby texture was created by using uneven yarns in the weaving process. This yarn also has loose bits we like to call fleck. You'll see both natural and indigo flecks popping galore on this pair. It's pretty much the trifecta of goodness for the indigo-heads out there. They've finished this pair with copper hardware and subtle contrast stitching. It's truly one of the pairs of the year, and there are only 300 of them made worldwide. If you want 'em, grab 'em early.

Crosscut Flannel - Rust Twill Plaid
This Crosscut has all that heavy texture goodness for which the shirt is known. It's a chunky twill with the enamel-coated buttons you all know and love. And, it's a gorgeous Rust color that shoots a bit of saturation into an otherwise desaturated lineup for FW23. Still though, this shirt has a softness from the brushing process that we've come to appreciate. The day of the stiff, crunchy flannel has come to an end, at least for now. Cozy is in, but without losing the hardiness this thing cut its teeth on.
Easy Pant - Dry Garden Jacquard
The Easy Pant is a roomy, comfy fitting pant with a cut nice enough to make you want to wear it out and about, but just as easily to lounge on the couch. It carries on this season's beige/tan color story in this gorgeous off-white color they're calling Dry Garden. If you were lucky enough to get your hands on one of the last two pieces, these pants will pair perfectly with them. We really appreciate that they used their newly acquired fabric wizardry to do the talking. Since pairing with their factory in India, the level of textile uniqueness is through the roof. This Jacquard has a topographical hand feel that you can see in the pictures but only truly experience in person. It's very, very hard to shock us after 10 years of seeing and touching fabrics on a daily basis - but this Dry Garden Jacquard has opened our eyes to what technical weaving can be.
Shop Jacket - Dry Garden Jacquard
The Shop Jacket is a new silhouette for FW23 that is designed with a nod toward classic European chore coats. It carries on this season's beige/tan color story in this gorgeous off-white color they're calling Dry Garden. If you were lucky enough to get your hands on one of the last two pieces, this jacket will layer over the top of them so nicely.
